fast car - fast reaction

[cormcvcr]

Craig drove his brand new BMW Z3 convertible out of the car salesroom.

Taking off down the motorway, he floored it to 90 mph, enjoying the

wind blowing through what little hair he had left.

 

"Amazing!" he thought as he flew down the M4, enjoying pushing the

pedal to the metal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw

a police car behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring.

 

"I can get away from him - no problem!" thought Craig as he floored

it to 110, then 120, then 130. Suddenly, he thought, "What on earth

am I doing? I'm too honest for this nonsense!" So he pulled over to

the side of the road and waited for the police car to catch up with him.

 

16 minutes later, pulling in behind him, the police officer walked

up to the driver's side of the BMW, looked at his watch and said,

"Sir, my shift ends in 10 minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking

off for the weekend. If you can give me a reason why you were

speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."

 

Craig looked very seriously at the policeman, and replied, "Years

ago, my wife ran off with a policeman. I thought you were bringing

her back."

 

"Have a good day, Sir," said the policeman
